What if I don't have an ID card to go to Lhasa?

You can go to Lhasa without an ID card to apply for temporary id card.

In Tibet, especially Lhasa, you must carry your ID card with you. Many policemen in the streets of that place will look at the identity information of the parties at will. If you lose your ID card before entering Tibet, there are two ways to solve it. Take your household registration book with you, or just go to the police station to run temporary id card. Both methods can be solved.

The material flow required for handling ID cards in different places is as follows:

1. To reissue an ID card in a different place, you first need a residence permit in your city;

2. In addition to the residence permit, there must be a single-page original and a copy of the household registration book. When you are ready, go to the local police station to get (shoot) the bareheaded front photo and go to the appointment acceptance point according to the appointment time;

3. Before I reissue it, I will ask myself to fill in the application form for reporting the loss of my ID card (including: name, telephone number, the issuing authority of the ID card, that is, the address of the police station where the account is located);

4. Applicants need to collect one fingerprint of their left hand and one fingerprint of their right hand when applying for a new ID card. If it cannot be collected for special reasons, the staff shall explain the reasons and record them;

5. The applicant pays the cost of the resident ID card, and the staff issues a unified payment book for non-tax income;

6, residents from the date of acceptance 15 working days to the designated issuing place, with the "non-tax income unified payment book" and the original identity card (a replacement) to receive vouchers;

7. You can also use the EMS certificate. For postal express service, postal information should also be filled in. 10 days later, it will be sent to the place designated by the applicant by postal courier company.

To sum up, since the ID card is the only proof of China's citizenship, if you don't have an ID card when you enter Tibet, you can't travel normally and go through all the formalities. However, you can go to the public security organ to handle temporary id card, and you can consult the local public security organ for specific procedures. If you need to go to Tibet, you need to apply for relevant documents, such as a tourist visa. At the same time, we should pay attention to some special situations in Tibet, such as altitude sickness.
